Above the gray fog

Walking into the research institute, the outside looks very prosperous, but the interior decoration is actually very simple.

The advanced sense of technology is not felt. Only transparent glass separates the room, and the research materials and facilities in the room are also placed in a mess.

The so-called research facilities are actually facilities for measuring dimensions or assisting cutting. The core of spiritual technology is people, spiritual instruments, and characteristics. Research facilities can only play an auxiliary role. A researcher who is proficient in spiritual instruments does not need any facilities. If the materials are sufficient, he can also make precise spiritual weapons or other machines.

The "precision" here refers to the precision of the spiritual instrument. The number of nested layers, reasonable design, and space saving are the most important. Those auxiliary facilities are mainly to help researchers quickly process materials.

Of course, there is a prerequisite for becoming such a researcher, and he must be extraordinary.

Otherwise, not to mention the degree of control over spirituality, just the processing of materials is a big problem.

As the number of researchers in the institute increases, Jin Tianzong now only does the most cutting-edge research. He has not taken over some basic technology expansion for a long time. The human race can now support the foundation of spiritual technology with its own strength. The role of pioneers has gradually been replaced by the human race as a whole and is no longer as important as before.

With the development of the human race, this is an inevitable trend. After all, in terms of scientific research, how can an individual compare with the race.

Passing through the transparent glass rooms, there is a row of elevators in the middle aisle.

Two white stones are inlaid at the elevator door. Lin Shan injected a little spirituality into the first stone, and the stone began to emit a bright white light.

After a while, the elevator door opened, Lin Shan stepped in, injected spirituality into the stone with the number '25', the elevator door closed, and the elevator began to climb rapidly.

The elevator here just continues the name, and has nothing to do with electricity. Perhaps it is more appropriate to call it a spiritual ladder.

But in the end, it was decided to use the name of the elevator. Not only the elevator, but all the technological creations now, except those that do not exist on Earth, all use the names on Earth. For the new generation, this is a new term, but for the older generation, including the pioneers, they are full of thoughts about these terms. This world is slowly approaching the place where they once lived.

The elevator quickly climbed to the 25th floor.

This place is different from the first floor. This is a hall. The researchers coming and going in the hall are busy with their own work.

There is a row of rooms on each side of the hall. These are the offices of the senior management of the institute.

In the institute, if you want to be a senior manager, it has nothing to do with your status. You must have excellent R\u0026D technology and be at the forefront of scientific research to sit in this position.

The institute is divided into two parts. The industrial R\u0026D department headed by Jin Tianzong includes the research and development of technological creations in life and various spiritual machinery and weapons.

The other part is the agricultural cultivation department headed by Si Zhennan, which ranges from the optimization of grain, vegetable, fruit and variety to the cultivation of spiritual plants.

It is worth mentioning that the magic potion of "enlightenment" was finally given to Si Zhennan, and "believers" was given to Huang Ying.

Now seven pioneers in the tribe have been promoted to Sequence 8, namely Lin Shan, Zhao Xiaoan, Wu Wang, Jin Tianzong, Xia Xuan, Si Zhennan, and Huang Ying.

Only Yan Ruxin and Zhang Zhonghua have not been promoted. Zhang Zhonghua often goes out, and the ability he likes is the combat type ability. "Believers" and "enlightenment" do not meet his expectations. Yan Ruxin is a fallen body and does not meet his physical condition.

As soon as Lin Shan stepped out of the elevator, a three-leaf grass walked towards Lin Shan.

It walked in front of Lin Shan and made a "please" gesture to Lin Shan.

Lin Shan ignored it and walked towards Jin Tianzong's office.

This grass is not a grass spirit. It is just a sequence 9 spirit plant. Affected by Si Zhennan's ability, this spirit plant, which should have been ordinary, has gained simple wisdom.

In terms of its intelligence, it is probably about the same as a parrot. As long as it is repeatedly taught, it will imitate human actions, but it can only do this. No matter how much training and teaching, its wisdom will not improve. This is the upper limit of its ability, and it can only be enlightened to this extent.

Enlightenment has only one characteristic, called "Awakening Spirit", which is an extremely special characteristic.

Its effect is to give animals and plants intelligence, but it will not be too high, and the intelligence given is limited by ability, and it can no longer learn and grow on its own. Enlightenment cannot empower creatures that already have intelligence. The premise of using this ability is that the other party has no intelligence and must be a living thing.

This ability is very strong in some aspects, but it does not seem to be of any help in fighting. You can't let those stupid animals and plants help fight.

"Dong Dong Dong." Lin Shan knocked on the door of the office lightly.

"Come in." Jin Tianzong's voice came from inside.

Lin Shan pushed the door open and walked in.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw a pink flower on the table holding a kettle to water itself with difficulty.

Next to it was a spiritual plant with a gray glow, which used its blades to hold a shovel and turn the soil for itself.

Jin Tianzong was holding a magnifying glass in one hand and a slender engraving pen in the other, engraving something there. Next to him was a little gray mouse fighting with a light green weed.

"Here I am." Jin Tianzong looked up and greeted Lin Shan when he saw him. Then he said, "Your weapon is ready. It was modified according to your requirements. Try it."

After that, he walked behind him and took out a jade box from the platform and placed it on the table.

"According to your requirements, it is a pure attack weapon. Since the clan land does not have the corresponding characteristics, bullets cannot be made. There is only a charging mode. It takes a month to fully charge. When fully charged, one attack is comparable to a full-strength attack at the peak of Sequence 8."

"Equipped with the latest charging technology, in addition to automatic charging, you can also infuse your own spirituality to charge it. However, no matter how you infuse it, its upper limit is the peak of Sequence 8, and there is only one attack that cannot be superimposed. In other words, you can actively charge it after releasing an attack, and you don’t have to wait for a month of automatic charging. Active charging requires attention. Unless it has the same characteristics, it will require at least twice the spirituality consumption. Therefore, it is not recommended to charge it in battle. The gain outweighs the loss."

"In summary, although the interval between uses is shortened, it can only be used once in each battle."

Jin Tianzong opened the jade box while introducing it, and an exquisite pistol came into view. The black pistol had golden lines on it, and the lines flashed golden light from time to time. This is the spiritual instrument engraved on it.

"Features, gigantic, the core given by the Grass Spirits, I haven't given it a name yet, give it a name."

"There is one more thing you need to know, the core used in this gun is not a core of the peak of Sequence 8, and it is forced to load the power of the peak of Sequence 8, and it will be damaged every time it is used, which means... this gun has a service life, but it is very long, so you don't need to worry about it for now. If the core is broken, the characteristics inside will dissipate without a bundle." Jin Tianzong admired the pistol in front of him.

It is made into a pistol, although it is small and easy to carry, but it also sacrifices many physical auxiliary functions, such as the most basic scope cannot be installed, and there is no anti-recoil module.

"Let's call it the gigantic pistol." Lin Shan said lightly.

Jin Tianzong: "..."
